Sightseeing while cross-country skiing
From the flat Golfplatzloipe trail near the golf course to the Höhenloipe trail high up in the mountains and the 3 km trail on the Kitzsteinhorn glacier, cross-country skiing in the Zell am See-Kaprun region is just as diverse as the landscape itself. Highlights such as the Burg Kaprun fortress or the Zeller See lake – both of which are to be found directly next to the trails – make cross-country skiing a sightseeing adventure in its own right.
